Twitter has been filled with people recasting the cover images of famous albums with pictures of dogs and clever dog-based art under the hashtag #dogband.

The odd trend was started through a segment on the Comedy Central Show @Midnight hosted by comedian and podcast host Chris Hardwick.

Even the drive-in chain Sonic got into the act.

Though it's preposterously silly, the internet seemed captivated with the idea and literally thousands of dog band ideas, including The Beagles and and the absurd, but still fun, "Scooby Lewis and the News."
